"We know that victory is won only through the sweat of workers and the blood of soldiers. Out there, there isn't one unimportant soldier, back here there isn't a single unimportant worker."
Another film about the critical importance of wartime production brought home through stories of individual workers. Refitting of Firestone plants for wartime production. Manufacturing of truck tires, tank tracks, machine gun ammunition, gasoline tanks; anti-aircraft guns; barrage balloons; life vests; Many workers have family members in the military. The point is made many times that these workers have a special reason to work well and efficiently. "Industry started out to make it possible for these physically handicapped people to help themselves not it ends up that these handicapped people are helping their country."

Subject: All Out for Propgandistic purposes!
OVer-patriotic film celebrating (or is it back-slapping?) the workers in the war. Many of the items manufactured in this film is made from rubber (surprise, surprise!) and the workers who make them are sometimes profiled, many of which have relatives in the war (none of which are dead by the way).
The show uses many shameless stereotypes, Old people are said to come back from retirement 'the day after Pearl Harbor, as he wanted to fight the Japs'.
The film goes all out in it's propganda style nature, starting with a WWI Minuteman statue coming to life and narrating (!!) to the effective use of the 'worker' making a stark speech at the end.
